Always on My Mind
Unspoken Regrets: Happy Baby's Heartfelt Confession in 'Always on My Mind'
Lyrics
Maybe I didn't love you
Admission of potential neglect in expressing love.
Quite as often as I could have
Recognition of not loving as consistently as possible.
Maybe I didn't treat you
Acknowledgment of possible shortcomings in how the person was treated.
Quite as good as I should have
Acceptance of not treating the person as well as deserved.
If I made you feel second best
Apology for making the person feel less important.
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
Apology for past blindness to the person's feelings.
But you were always on my mind
Recognition that the person was always in the thoughts.
You were always on my mind
Reiteration of the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
Maybe I didn't hold you
Acknowledgment of potential neglect in holding the person.
All those lonely, lonely times
Reference to past moments of loneliness without the person.
I guess I never told you
Acknowledgment of not expressing happiness about the person being together.
That I am so happy that you're mine
Expressing joy in having the person as a partner.
If I made you feel second best
Apology for potentially making the person feel inadequate.
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
Apology for past ignorance of the person's feelings.
But you were always on my mind
Acknowledgment of the continuous presence of the person in thoughts.
You were always on my mind
Reiteration of the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
Tell me, tell me that your sweet love hasn't died
Desire for reassurance about the continuity of love.
Give me, give me one more chance
Pleading for an opportunity to make things right.
To keep you satisfied
Request for a chance to ensure the person's satisfaction.
I'll keep you satisfied
Commitment to maintaining the person's satisfaction.
Little things I should have said and done
Regret for not saying or doing certain small things in the past.
I just never took the time
Admission of not prioritizing time for important actions.
But you were always on my mind
Recognition of the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
You were always on my mind
Reiteration of the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
You were always on my mind
Continued emphasis on the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
You were always on my mind
Reiteration of the constant presence of the person in thoughts.
